1 By David. A psalm: The earth is
ADONAI's, with all that is in it, the world and those who live there;
2 for he set its foundations on the
seas and established it on the rivers.
3 Who may go up to the mountain of
ADONAI? Who can stand in his holy place?
4 Those with clean hands and pure
hearts, who don't make vanities the purpose of their lives or swear oaths just
to deceive.
5 They will receive a blessing from
ADONAI and justice from God, who saves them.
6 Such is the character of those who
seek him, of Ya'akov, who seeks your face. (Selah)
7 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift
them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!
8 Who is he, this glorious king? ADONAI,
strong and mighty, ADONAI, mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, you gates! Lift
them up, everlasting doors, so that the glorious king can enter!
10 Who is he, this glorious king?
ADONAI-Tzva'ot he is the glorious king. (Selah)
